About

Innovation. Quality. Service.

For over 40 years, Showtech Merchandising Inc. has been the trusted name in the entertainment merchandising industry.

Since 1976, Showtech has driven sales for some of the largest international entertainment artists. We develop and produce innovative designs and products while always remaining committed to the highest quality standards. Our product line is the envy of the industry.

From relationship building through product launch, Showtech President Patrick McLoughlin leads the firm with integrity and transparency.

“With merchandising taking on greater importance for artists’ careers, our company must constantly deliver maximum results for our clients. We leverage our considerable wealth of four decades worth of merchandising experience, and perform with the most modern practices. Our relationships throughout the industry are solid, as they are based on trust, respect, and exemplary client service.”

Design & Development

Our formula for success is creativity balanced with sourcing sensibility.

We strive to channel the energy and creativity of the artist into the design of the products we make. Our teams work directly with artists and managers to develop unique products that excite fans. Showtech’s creative team includes designers with specific experience in fields such as screenprinting, fashion design, and lithography, to name a few. Because we have our eyes on the fans, we produce merchandise that sells.

Touring & Event Sales

We manage and staff tours big and small. All levels of event sales are possible with Showtech whether it be large arenas or stadiums, outdoor festivals, or small clubs. Our hand-picked Road Merchandise Managers work closely with our production and logistics team to ensure that the correct range of products are available and stocked for all events. We also ensure that the most advantageous payments systems are in place at each show.

Retail & Licensing

Showtech provides sales and distribution of products to retail clients around the world. We place goods in all stores ranging from mass-market to independents, and non-traditional shops and markets as well. Consistent attention to the retail and license roster ensures our artists can maximize this income stream. By keeping our eyes on global retailers, we’re able to vigorously protect the integrity and intellectual rights of our artists.

Web Stores

Showtech has been selling online merchandise to fans since the early days of the Internet. Our web stores are fully customized to integrate with the artists’ existing website and branding image. Our e-commerce platform can handle massive amounts of simultaneous order processing and traffic, which means your pre-order campaigns and/or album releases are successful and lucrative. We offer fans the highest level of security encryption possible and multiple payment options, which allow for worry-free shopping. In addition to a world-class shopping experience, we provide a toll-free phone line for questions or concerns. Our customer service staff has tremendous product knowledge and works tirelessly to help customers make satisfied decisions.
